With President Obama demanding an “up or down” vote on sweeping health care reform, it’s worth reminding people of what government has done where involved with medical care and “bringing down costs.” The leadership in Washington will push for virtually any reform bill no matter how bad or unconstitutional, and when things eventually get worse, [...]

According to Dick Morris, the Obama-Pelosi-Reid gang is planning more devious shenanigans in order to pass Obamacare without the necessary votes.

Despite repeated assurance from President Obama about honesty and transparency, it seems the White House will not post the final version of the Health Care bill online for 72 hours. White House Spokesman Robert Gibbs dodged questions when asked whether or not the bill will be posted on the internet for the public prior to [...]

As Thomas Sowell correct explains in his latest article:
In short, this is not about improving the health of the American people. It is about passing something– anything– to keep the Obama administration from ending up with egg on its face by being unable to pass a bill, after so much hype and hoopla. Politically, looking [...]

According to a new survey by Zogby, more than 80 percent of Americans believe politicians intentionally create long and complex bills in order to conceal spending for their special interests, and to prevent constituents from understanding the bill before a vote is taken.

This nearly $900 billion bill would be paid for by $483 billion in cuts to Medicare and other federal health programs, as well as tax increases. Of course the real costs will undoubtedly be much higher as the government is notorious for grossly underestimating costs. Not to mention this is the same government with a [...]

by SteveK @ Wednesday, December 2nd, 2009. Tags: , , , , , ,
Filed under Economics, Government, Healthcare

It was no small lie when Obama promised the American people that they would not be hit with any new or increased taxes for those earning less than $250,000 per year. Unfortunately, that broken promise will turn out to be the biggest and most devastating lie any president in history has ever told. And that [...]

Filed under Government, Healthcare

True to form, politicians in Washington are pushing yet another tax, but one that closely resembles the European ‘value added tax’ - a type of national sales tax. A VAT is among the most regressive taxes that can be imposed and disproportionately harms the middle and lower classes.
The Democrat’s Health Reform bill contains a provision [...]
